National Insulation Association - Welcome climate change bill
The National Insulation Association welcomes the new improved and
strengthened ‘Climate Change Bill’ set out by the Environment
secretary, Hilary Benn.
Neil Marshall, Chief Executive of the NIA said ‘We look forward to
continuing working with Government to ensure every home in Britain
is adequately insulated, this will significantly reduce carbon
emissions’. ‘There are nearly 9 million homes with cavity walls that
are not insulated and around half of the existing housing stock
requires insulation to reach a thermally efficient standard. The
insulation industry has the expertise, technology and capacity to
meet the requirements for treating these homes’.
‘Measures such as green mortgages, council tax rebates and grants
which encourage energy efficient homes should be introduced by
Government. Insulation is a highly cost effective measure; cavity
wall insulation for example can save the average householder £130 -
£160 per year as a result of reduced energy bills.’
NIA members have to meet strict guidelines and have all signed the
NIA’s Code of Professional Practice, ensuring that they provide the
highest possible service. More information on the benefits of
insulation is available at: www.nationalinsulationassociation.org.uk
together with a search facility to find a local installer.
